Where it sits among 165mm circular saws

Scaled against the 19 circular saws with a 165mm blade we list, so other sizes aren't in the mix. Not a score: bigger isn't always better for your job.

The verdictOur take

Milwaukee's original 165mm FUEL saw, and a quiet, compact option for single-battery work. On spec it runs a 165mm blade at 5000rpm with 55mm of depth at 90° and a 0 to 50° bevel, on the M18 platform. Its real standout is noise: at 80.8 dB(A) it is one of the quietest saws in this comparison, which counts for a lot on long indoor jobs. It now sits below the newer FCS552 in Milwaukee's 165mm lineup, which is faster but louder. A good pick if you value a quiet, light saw over outright cut speed.
